@Olo Ahhhh someone make this app stat

A G/t… dating app?! Ultra niche, but why I never thought of that!?! It doesn’t already exist, right…?

foreverlurks dropping his 19 other unfinished side projects to code Gullivr…

Lots of interesting thoughts, Olo. I think mine intersects with Lily’s a lot, in the sense that while violence is not really my thing, I would never judge you based on your fantasies. I sincerely hope that, whenever I express my own personal preferences for the gentler side of things, I don’t come across as judging or looking down upon those that don’t share my tastes.

I was fortunate enough to be older than most here when I first got access to the internet, so I wasn’t that shocked when first exposed to violent SW fiction and pictures. I must admit that hurting or killing in the context of shrinking had never even crossed my mind at that point. It’s part of those little details in size fiction that took me a while to discover, like for instance the prevalence of fear as being the foremost sought after emotion from the tiny/SW’s perspective. I know it’s obvious but what I personally seek with the shrinking lies first and foremost in the newfound vulnerability of the shrunken woman. The fear, as I see it, is a byproduct of that loss of power, but not THE thing I’m explicitly looking for. I’m almost like a blissfully unaware giant that has no clue of the utter terror he’s inflicting on his shrunken victim. Does that make any sense?

It is not unreasonable, therefore, to be concerned about how expressions of fetish desires might be (mis)interpreted by people unfamiliar with the tropes and conventions of certain fetishes.

We had a case very similar to Gilberto Valle here in Quebec with a horror writer for a book he published in 2017. In that story, there was an incest/rape scene involving a minor - someone reported that to police, and he was accused of producing child pornography. He was later found not guilty but not before his entire life had been destroyed.

I don’t know where modern day psychology stands on all this. I’ve seen their takes on “viDeO gAmEs mAkE yOu viOleNt!!” and I’m not sure we’re in the clear. I’m old enough to remember the D&D scare in the 90s, when people thought playing that game made us satanic worshippers or something. I shudder to think what some experts would say if they were exposed to size fiction.

PS: J’aime beaucoup le titre de votre article. Very clever.

@i-am-insane it’s not the only one, but one of the few (compared to GTS it’s nothing of course). I have made a playlist of F4M SW audio, including one by our very own @skysayl :

I also have another playlist for M4F, including a script written by @littlest-lily :

I enjoy those very much and I hope more will be made in the future.

@SmolChlo said in Muse:

@foreverlurk She starts to notice his growing obsession and is concerned that her visits are going to turn into a permanent stay

Oh, you mean she willingly shrunk down to be his model for that session (purely for, er, artistic reasons!), but maybe now he doesn’t want to restore her to normal?

I didn’t even notice the AI tag at the bottom!

Yeah, well that’s exactly my point, it should be more obvious in the UI.

@The-Big-G said in Depression and Size Kink:

Dose a day go by that I wouldn’t give up everything to spend five minutes with a tiny woman even if we just chatted as I admired her

“Chatting as I admired her” yes, this, exactly this. I think I used these same words a few times. Is it too much to ask?

And thanks, it’s always nice to know I’m not alone.

Nice catch, thanks for sharing!

Still waiting for the game that will let me play as a giant

@SmolChlo Is this a choose-your-own-adventure thread? In that case, I’d go with option #2, please.

Although, he does look like a true gentleman from a bygone era, and the way they look at each other tells me it’s a relationship built on trust, making the first option way more likely (and the second option even… better worse?)

@i-am-insane Lots of interesting things to ponder. You know, maybe I make it sound like it’s purely sexual thing - it’s really not. Most of what I wrote would still apply in a platonic relationship (side note - sorry if the nuances of aromantics/asexuals are lost on me, I need to read more on the topic!). There are so many reasons I love this fantasy that involves no sex at all.

As for the therapist, I’m comfortable enough but I haven’t had much experience to judge. I’m just not a people’s person, so if I feel at ease with her after a few sessions, for me it’s a very positive sign. I hope so.

@Noneja I don’t know why all games are from the tinies perspective, we giants need games too! I would even settle for an observer mode.

I’m not usually into being a literal giant myself, but… casting a huge shadow over a city with my hand? Yes please!

Oh and Grounded would be absolutely fun to watch from a normal-size perspective

@Olo I can change the angles, lenses and focus, but even keeping the same prompt (and seed) there’s no way it’s going to have the same details in all the angles.

That’s a job better suited for 3D modeling software.

@Miri I know it’s going to take some time, I’ve no illusions. I never talked about this fantasy to anyone in real life, so even that first step is part of the process, getting over my self-consciousness and shame. I’m always jealous of how some people in the community can be so open about it.

Takes me a while to open up, even in such a safe space. Wish me good luck for the next session.

@skysayl nope, it doesn’t seem to mind about GTS and SM at all, and doesn’t lecture me. Ah, what a time to be alive.

@SmolChlo hehe, a few scene from this anime are stored in my long term memory, like the Kagome hand held, or this one :

“Try WHAT !?”

@i-am-insane said in Depression and Size Kink:

The relationship itself has a sort of expectation, even if it’s unstated, that at some point you will talk about this kind of thing, to be open and honest.

What you wrote is so very true, and yet that’s something I still struggle with. I have a hard time opening up and trusting, I always focus on the negative outcomes of any situations, and it’s very hard for me to allow myself to be vulnerable with someone. Admitting this kink is then basically impossible.

A long road ahead for me.

Wish I could spoiler images but maybe this will do

The shrinking scene on youtube:

(awwww she’s so cute, yet looks so sad. She needs to be picked up and hugged! )

I must say I like that shrinking method a hundred times more.
